    The Duchess of Cambridge showed off her baby bump—in a blue Jenny Packham overcoat and dress—during a visit to St. Thomas' Hospital in London. The mom-to-be met families and patients in the Snow Leopard Ward at Evelina London Children’s Hospital, keeping the conversation light-hearted by joking that Prince William (not in attendance) was still in denial about the arrival of baby number three.

    Jamie Parsons, whom Kate joked with, told People that he was wishing her luck. "I was saying, ‘Congratulations, best of luck with the third one,'" Parsons said.

    And her response to him: "William’s in denial."

    I’m currently working at Dotdash Meredith as the Celeb & Entertainment E-Commerce Lead contributing affiliate content for People.com and InStyle.com. I’m basically like your personal shopper, from writing about that cozy loungewear set you didn’t know you needed to keeping tabs on the best sales and deals on the internet. I’m also a pro at finding affordable dupes for celebrity looks and I love to dig into the data to strategize content opportunities.
